MULTI-TECHNOLOGY COEXISTENCE FOR IBSS NETWORKS

摘要

A first wireless communication device including a first transceiver and a second transceiver. The first transceiver is configured to transmit first signals according to a first wireless communication technology. The second transceiver is configured to transmit second signals according to a second wireless communication technology. Memory is configured to store a schedule that identifies first intervals for allowing communication using the first signals and second intervals for allowing communication using the second signals. A coexistence circuit is configured to allow the first transceiver to transmit the first signals only during the first intervals, allow the second transceiver to transmit the second signals only during the second intervals, and cause the first transceiver to transmit, prior to each of the second intervals, a message that indicates a duration of a respective one of the second intervals.
